Progress Log #25: Weeks 53 & 54; June 19 2020

Preface

I continued where I left off last period by leveling Fletching so I could make Red Dragonhide Shields.


Progress

Around 27k Maple Logs were fletched and around 15k Maple Longbows were strung, getting me to 87 Fletching


During that, I did a few farm runs, hitting 55 Farming.


However, I forgot about the Crafting requirement for the shields. Luckily I was only 1 level off, and since I had quite a few semi-precious gems left over from my previous Mining and Crafting grinds, I went to work buying and smelting ~2.5k Silver Bars, and then turning the gems into various pieces of jewelery. In the previous Farming screenshot you can see me looking at where Silver Bars would get me in Smithing, close to 75, which is another silver lining.


The future Rings of Returning will help me in future crafting grinds, when I make Air Orbs, since the teleport will put me close to the entrance to Edgeville Dungeon. This will also help with Herblore since I can gather Red Spider eggs in the Wilderness portion of it.

Expeditious/Slaughter Bracelets will of course help with Slayer.

Burning Amulets provide teleports to various locations in the Wilderness, which is helpful too.


Unfortunately I didn’t have enough gems, precious or semi-precious, to get me to the next Crafting level.

Unfortunate for the Brutal Green Dragons I killed, that is. I only needed 160 or so hides to finish the level so I went and threw myself at the dragons until I killed enough, banking some more Dragon Bones and other supplies for later. With that done, I crafted Green Dragonhide bodies and got 76 Crafting


I then crafted a few Red Dragonhide Shields, completing my Ranged armor upgrade for the time being.


Last log I mentioned one of my plans for Slayer Rings, and since then I expanded upon them a bit more.


I’ve even gone beyond that and set them in motion, grinding out Agility at the Wilderness Agility Course.

1739 laps later, I finally hit 80 Agility, unlocking the Rellekka Rooftop Agility Course.


I only ran into 4 PKers inside the course (I did see 2-3 running up the side after they checked Larran’s Big Chest and possibly noticed me, but a hop dealt with them with no issues), with only 1 managing to even get to me in time before I hopped (though I still managed to escape), which is a bit sad if you really think about it, even though it was a great boon for my grind.


After the Wilderness course was conquered, I still needed 1 Agility level to use the first Slayer Cave shortcut, so I stomped on some roofs until I hit 81 Agility



These were my stats at the time of this post



Goals

As soon as I get 5m coins (give or take a buffer) I will buy Edgeville Respawn, as I fear the Death Rework is coming soon, and I’ll have a greater need for the new respawn point (namely, the accessibility for Death’s Coffer).
